Recipe of the week: Cranberry Rosemary Muffins

Several months ago I had breakfast at a restaurant called The Curious Palate in Mar Vista (Venice). If you're even in that area I highly recommend you check them out, they're all about farm to table, and you know how much I love that! Anyway, we had breakfast, everything was delicious. They had these muffins and I've been looking for a recipe but I haven't been able to find one, so after experimenting a little bit, this is what I came up with. Let me know what you think. A Votre Sante!

In a large bowl mix all the dry ingredients and the orange rind. In a separate large bowl cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, beat in the egg and then the orange juice. Add the dry ingredients one cup at a time until just incorporated. Fold in the chopped cranberries. Scoop into muffin cups. In a small bowl mix the brown sugar, flour and rosemary, cut in the butter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle tops with brown sugar mixture.
